Function gstreamer::init [−][src]
pub fn init() -> Result<(), Error>
Expand description
Initializes the GStreamer library, setting up internal path lists, registering built-in elements, and loading standard plugins.
Unless the plugin registry is disabled at compile time, the registry will be
loaded. By default this will also check if the registry cache needs to be
updated and rescan all plugins if needed. See update_registry()
for
details and section
WARNING: This function will terminate your program if it was unable to
initialize GStreamer for some reason. If you want your program to fall back,
use gst_init_check()
instead.
WARNING: This function does not work in the same way as corresponding functions in other glib-style libraries, such as gtk_init(). In particular, unknown command line options cause this function to abort program execution.
